Sticking law
Internet and hosting providers proposed changing the law on blacklists on the Internet: cancel blocking of sites by IP addresses and give providers the right to decide for themselves how to block bad content.
Representatives of MTS, Hosting Community, Ru-Center, Russian Association of Electronic Communications (RAEC, unites more than 80 Internet companies), the Foundation for Assistance for the Development of Internet Technologies and Infrastructure participated in yesterday’s meeting, one of the meeting participants said. They discussed how providers and hosters will technically implement the legislation on blacklists on the Internet. According to Ru-Center Deputy Director Pavel Khramtsov, one of the main recommendations of industry participants is to block content by addresses (URLs), not by IP (it allows you to close and bona fide with bad sites). Blocking by IP is meaningless, inefficient and dangerous, says RAEC analyst Irina Levova. Previously it was assumed that the clarification will be made to this law at the level of by-laws. But, for example, the problem of IP addresses is not solved at this level — the law itself must be ruled, Levova said.
Another suggestion is to let the provider choose the way to restrict access to information. The text of the law adopted in July assumes that the domain, network and IP addresses of pages with illegal content will be entered in the register of bad websites. At the meeting, it was proposed to make the description of the blocking procedure more general and oblige providers to block information, and not the site, says the main expert of the information security department of MTS Dmitry Kostrov. Then the operator will be able to decide how to block access to him.
But no traffic filtering system is 100% effective. According to Khramtsov from Ru-Center, the filtering efficiency by URL is about 60%, and if you use the system of deep packet analysis (DPI) - 80%. But DPI systems are expensive and their implementation on fixed networks does not pay off, Kostrov believes (he previously estimated DPI implementation at $ 51 million): on mobile networks, DPI is used to control traffic in general, and in fixed networks its functionality will not be fully demanded. . MTS is exploring several options for filtering traffic — based on DNS (when user’s DNS requests are redirected to the operator’s filtering node) and using high-speed traffic analysis systems, Kostrov says.
Federal Law No. 139-FZ of July 28, 2012 (formerly Bill No. 89417-6) - Federal Law of the Russian Federation “On Amendments to the Federal Law“ On Protecting Children from Information Harmful to Their Health and Development ”and certain legislative acts Of the Russian Federation on the issue of restricting access to illegal information on the Internet. ” This law has introduced a number of provisions to other federal laws, which presuppose filtering of Internet sites by the blacklist system and blocking prohibited Internet resources. A number of experts expressed concerns that this law could be used to censor the Internet.
PS: This post is a rough quote, with small remarks, submitted to the habro-community in order to familiarize and add to the already available information that large companies have already begun to move and in the end this draft law will pass ...
